Your role
Same firm, read from where you are sitting
Private equity and venture
The deal closed and the operating model in the plan is a slide, not a design.
Divisional CEOs and COOs
The same structural question has been argued 3 times and settled none.
Group CFOs
Layers nobody chose, and a target that has to be set before anyone can be told there is one.
Functional leaders
Centralise or federate, and who decides what afterwards.
CHROs and HR directors
A design is arriving from the business and you will be asked to defend it.
Corporate finance and restructuring advisers
Your client needs an organisation answer that sits outside your mandate.
Works councils and their advisers
A reorganisation proposal is on the table and you have to judge whether the reasoning holds.
